Abstract

In this paper, we derive the exact distributions of the differences, ratios and products and the corresponding moments properties of two dependent random variables X and Y following the Connor and Mosimann’s generalized Dirichlet distribution. Using the distributions of the differences and the ratios, we obtain the stress-strength reliability function A simple way for generation of is introduced depending on the marginal distribution of X and the conditional distribution of Y given Moreover, an application of the results to real data is provided.
